New persecutions of Zionists in Soviet Russia are reported in despatches from Moscow to the Central Bureau of the Poale Zion here.
According to these reports, Zionist Socialists who were exiled to Narym, Turkistan, Ural and Kirgisia were interned with their families in concentration camps. This was done following charges brought against them that while in exile they still maintain their party affiliations with the Zionists.
Following the departure of a group of Zionists, who were permitted to leave for Palestine instead of being exiled, 100 of their friends were arrested by the political police of Odessa.
